Després de més de trenta anys de carrera amb el grup R.E.M., i vuit anys després que la banda decidís dissoldre’s, el cantant Michael Stipe ha publicat la seva primera cançó com a solista, Your Capricious Soul. Stipe destinarà tots els beneficis de la cançó a Extinction Rebellion, una iniciativa que promou accions pacífiques de protesta contra la inacció del govern dels Estats Units per afrontar el canvi climàtic.
Honey’s got, got, got a good feeling
Honey peeled herself off the ceiling
Because God, God, God is revealing
How to serve your body
How to serve your mind
Searching your capricious soul
Say you post, post, post on the weekend
And you pretend you are a seeker
When they all come loving and looking
You are writing a tell-all
Tell-all, sugar
You are leaving nothing out
Godspeed baby, blessings
Gob-smacked, baby
And this party’s in your honour
Pass
Your mother’s worried
Is this in your favor
And your pastor’s crying
And the birds are dying
Or they might as well be
They might as well be
Now the papers calling
And the photos flashing
And the fashion’s changing
Fast
Yeah, the papers calling
And the photos flashing
And the fashion’s changing
Fast
